is a most extraordinary character in many re-

with which he WAS endowed, instead of
utilizing his brains and directing them
in a proper and useful channel. He has. how
ever, though perhaps little late in life, got
himself down, as it were to something that will
bring him fame, and should prove for him a
great financial success. His answer to Bob In
gersoll to night was, In every respect, highly
gratifying and triumphal success. He handled

Altogether he Is one OF the most pleasing
gifted and powerful of American orators, and
